Eastman Chemical Company announces the launch of its online Medical Technical Center, located on its corporate website at www.eastman.com/Medical, demonstrating that how material science can enhance medical science.

The site provides omprehensive product and processing information critical to application success, from design to product launch. By providing fitness-for-use polymer information, including clarity, toughness, chemical resistance and color stability, along with the ability to undergo certain processes or secondary operations, users can select the appropriate Eastman polymer for a wide-range of non-invasive medical devices, and flexible or rigid packaging applications.

The new Medical Technical Center includes material maps comparing Eastman polymers to other clear polymers typically used in the medical market. The information is organized to allow users to narrow their search of Eastman polymers based on material performance and processing parameters, including how a material withstands secondary operations such as joining, sterilization, and thermoforming techniques. Processing guidelines provide tips on how to produce high-quality parts from Eastman polymers.
